Online Learning

Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.) online

48-hour non-thesis program

The M.B.A. Online Degree Program is offered in cooperation with other schools of the University of Texas System. Students in the M.B.A. Online Program complete all coursework via the Internet. Course discussion or forums and student work is delivered entirely by electronic means. Taught by leading faculty at the participating institutions, this innovative program is designed to meet the needs of students whose work, geographic location, or other commitments prevent them from participating fully in conventional on-campus courses.

Curriculum

Curriculum for the M.B.A. Online Degree Program consists of 16 courses, for a total of 48 credit hours. Eighteen credit hours are taken in six core courses, which provide the student with the foundation of general business knowledge.

Students should consult the M.B.A. Program Director and the Univeristy of Texas System Online Consortium (http://www.utcoursesonline.org) for further information.
